We are a small theater and are interested in using QLC+ for our next production. I tested it and it seems to work nicely, although I encountered a bug in the cloning of scenes.
When I create a scene in QLC+, the Fixture Monitor and the 'real' fixtures show the DMX values correctly. But when I clone a scene, the output DMX values of the two scenes (original one and copied one) are suddenly zero, although the values on the sliders are correct. When I then move a slider slightly, it sends the right DMX value for that fixture again. Also when I save it and restart QLC+, it also works fine.
This is a nasty bug when setting up the lights for a theater show. We usually create a scene with all fixtures enabled and then we always clone the previous scene and change the lights that need to be changed for that scene.
Cheers,
Dylan

I started to notice something similar. Most of my scenes are clones of the previous, but some aspects don't work under Virtual Console. For example, I wanted all lights to strobe in one scene. It works when creating the scene, but not all fixtures work in virtual console. Looking into it further.

Dylan, is this "Bug" from 4.8.3?
Yes, it was already present in 4.8.2, but then I installed 4.8.3 and the bug is still there.
